Stand Together Foundation seeks a Narrative Coach who will provide communications subject matter expertise to support Catalyst partners, a network of national nonprofit organizations. This coach will help our nonprofit partners explore and articulate narratives that showcase principles in action, and they'll have a particular focus on adapting narrative work that's been done to different kinds of delivery (writing op-eds, delivering keynote remarks, serving on a panel, being a guest on a podcast).
The Narrative Coach will support nonprofit leaders to move from reciting what their organization does to successfully telling a story that moves a donor, a partner, or their own team. A successful Narrative Coach will work directly with nonprofit leaders to surface and own their narrative, then help them carry that narrative into external-facing material.
This is an ideal position for a communications professional with a background in marketing and communications who enjoys helping leaders uncover, refine, and confidently deliver narratives that showcase principles in action across a variety of formats and audiences.
Remote candidates will be considered on a case by case basis.
How You Will Contribute
Coach & Advise Nonprofit Leaders: Build high-trust relationships with founders, leaders, and spokespeople. Help them find, refine, and confidently deliver their organizational and personal narrative.
Adapt Narrative to Delivery Format: Take narrative work that's already been developed and help leaders carry it into new formats (op-eds, keynote remarks, panels, podcast appearances) so the story lands regardless of the format.
Build the System, Not Just the Sessions: Contribute to formalizing narrative coaching methodology (playbooks, repeatable frameworks), so this capability scales beyond any one coach.
Contribute to Strategy and Continuous Improvement: Synthesize patterns across engagements to identify where narrative gaps are limiting a leader's growth, funding, or partnerships.
Manage a Portfolio of Coaching Engagements: Support multiple nonprofit leaders and organizations simultaneously while maintaining high levels of responsiveness, organization, preparation, and follow-through. Balance competing priorities and varying partner needs while delivering an exceptional coaching experience.
What You Will Bring
5+ years in coaching, leadership development, or communications with direct, hands-on narrative/storytelling work
Prior operating experience in marketing or communications (agency, brand, or nonprofit comms)
Strong diagnostic capability: can identify why a leader's story isn't landing and knows how to improve it to maximize results
Outstanding listening, relationship-building, and interpersonal skills with the ability to establish trust and deliver candid feedback with empathy
Ability to operate effectively in ambiguous, evolving environments
Comfortable holding both a coaching relationship and an external-facing deliverable in the same engagement
Enthusiasm to contribute to Stand Together's vision and principled approach to solving problems, and a commitment to stewarding our culture, which champions values including transformation and innovation, entrepreneurialism, humility, and respect.
Standout Candidates Will Bring
Experience in nonprofit or philanthropic ecosystems
Track record of building narrative or comms tools/frameworks that scale beyond individual engagements
Experience coaching founder-led, mission-driven, or high-autonomy organizations
